Christians are called to be the representatives of Jesus in a sin-filled world. The Apostle Paul told the church to live a life worth of that calling. He described what that looks like in Ephesians chapters 4, 5, and 6. One of the biggest challenges in the church today is that too many Christians act normal instead of the new normal Paul describes. In this message, Rod Loy talks about what Paul has to say about greed and immorality in our lives.

When you live a life worthy of the calling, if you are truly committed to Jesus, it shows in the way you speak. People should be able to listen to you and know something is different. But what is supposed to be normal for a Christian?

What is "normal"? What you consider normal is different depending on where you are, and who you are with. What is normal in one place would be weird somewhere else. What used to be normal no longer is. What is normal for a person who is a follower of Christ?

It's funny, isn't it? We should be able to learn from other people's mistakes and failures. We should be able to read a story or see it as it happens with someone else and apply it to our own lives. We should, but often we don't. What does it usually take for us to learn life lessons? What can we do about it?
